This is a hands-on opportunity to work in a collaborative, innovation-driven environment where your contributions will directly impact real-world products. We recruit interns year-round for Spring, Summer, and Fall 2027 opportunities. Each internship lasts 12–16 weeks and follows a full-time schedule.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement RTL modules using Verilog for DSP and data conversion ICs.
- Perform logic simulation, functional verification, and synthesis in a mixed-signal environment.
- Collaborate with the design team on integration and system-level verification.
- Support behavioral modeling of analog and mixed-signal circuits.
- Assist with test vector generation and lab test development.
Required Skills and Qualifications
- Currently pursuing a MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
- Strong understanding of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) concepts.
- Proficiency in Verilog and Synopsys-based design flows.
- Experience with Matlab for algorithm development and analysis.
- Familiarity with PWM techniques, transistor-level simulators, and place-and-route tools.
Cirrus Logic follows a 2+ day in-office work schedule but interns should expect to be in the office more often, up to 5 days per week, based on business needs and team preference. Interns must be based within commutable distance of the work location listed on the job posting, or willing to relocate prior to beginning their internship with Cirrus Logic.
